installed over wood subfloors

use on, or above ground level

nail, or staple down

Engineered hardwood floors

unfinished, or pre-finished

installed over dry concrete slabs, or wood subfloors

use above, on or below ground level

glue-down, staple, or float

Long strip, engineered hardwood floors

unfinished, or pre-finished

installed over dry concrete slabs, or wood subfloors

use above, on or below ground level

glue-down, staple, or float

The engineered and longstrip hardwood floors can be installed on any level of the home, including in the basement if moisture isn’t present. They can also be glued down, floated over, or nailed down to most the subfloors. While the 3/4″ solid hardwood floors are generally recommended for above grade installation only, and have to be nailed to the subfloor. Any of these floors can be refinished if they become severely scratched, or dull from normal wear and tear.

Choosing a hardwood floor can be confusing, so let our expert staff help you decide which wood floor is right for your home.
